ABC News relaunches its periodic conventional wisdom watch, The Invisible Primary, for 2008. One of the ranking points is Iowa:
Republicans
Mike Huckabee 1
George Allen 2
John McCain 3
George Pataki 3
Newt Gingrich 5
Mitt Romney 5
Sam Brownback 7
Bill Frist 8
Chuck Hagel 8
Rudy Giuliani 10
Tom Tancredo 11
Democrats
Tom Vilsack 1
Hillary Clinton 2
John Edwards 3
Tom Daschle 4
John Kerry 5
Evan Bayh 6
Joe Biden 7
Russ Feingold 8
Mark Warner 9
Wesley Clark 10
Bill Richardson 11
Hotline On Call asks:
Huckabee wins Iowa. Is it because he's the only credible totally pro-life Protestant in the race?
I think it has more to do with his repetitive trips here. And I think ABC has Daschle way overrated for Iowa. I know it worked for Abe Lincoln, but losing your Senate race is an, er, unconventional road to the White House.
